Bhailang - The language by and for Indian bros!

 Hi folks!

If you ever get bored of the same, everyday, hard-coded keyword coding style, take a look here -

- a toy language created by two Indian 'bros' - Aniket Singh from Amazon and Rishabh Tripathi from Groww.

The language combines "Bhai", a word in Hindi for 'brother' and "lang", short for 'Language', popular in the coding culture, to derive it's name.

The developers said "Bhailang" came up as idea from an insider joke.

Syntax

It is written in TypeScript, and has it's own well-defined syntax, but every statement contains the word 'bhai'.

The programs of bhailang begin with a "hi bhai" statement and end with "bye bhai".

Keywords

Bhailang uses keyword in Hindi language for it's purpose of programming.

Numbers and strings are used and created like other languages. While, Boolean values of True and False are represented by "sahi" and "galat" instead.

Compilation and Execution

If your code is error-free and executes correctly the compiler returns with a message saying Shandaar bhai! in green.

But if the compiler encounters an error, it returns with a message saying Arre Bhai Bhai Bhai !!! in red.
